How do you get an animal in harvest moon island of hapiness?

Answer 1

You have to ask Gannon to build an Animal Barn or a Chicken Pen and then go to Mirabelle's Shop and buy an animal. To get the dog, you need to have the forest unlocked and have Mirabelle's friendship hearts up to 7 and in Winter, on a Snowy day, go to the Forest at a certain time and then you will have an event with Mirabelle and the dog you normally see there everyday. To get the horse, you need to have Chen's friendship points up to 7 as well. Then the next morning, he will give you a horse.
